I READ the news today, oh boy. Seriously though, have you read it? And I don’t mean the April Fools stuff. Try the football. It’s glorious. This game brings with it many joys, and few are as good as a probably undeserved, and definitely very lucky, last-minute own...
TRANSCENDENT. Here’s the scene. Last season in this fixture late in the game, Mo Salah went around their whole side and finished beautifully. It went off. It meant nothing. Both there and then and in the bigger picture. This season he just keeps it alive back...

THE international break seems to have gone well for Liverpool… Touch wood. No one seems to have exerted themselves too much. Sadio Mane had the furthest to travel, but even he was left out the starting 11 in the second game before coming on for the last 15...
A GLORIOUS sunny day at Wembley. Almost 90,000 Liverpool fans in attendance. With minutes to go, the men in red hit Barcelona on the counter attack. A dinked cross from Lazar Markovic is headed into the far corner of the net by young Marko Grujic. The fans go wild as...
